Hiya, my room is really small and has pink walls, I can't repaint at the moment and was wondering if you had any tips on how to make my room cosier and to help cover up the pink walls? Thanks :)
To cover up walls if you can’t paint!... Uhh what I did to my wardrobe (which was pink) a few years ago was to buy sticky plastic with a plain white pattern and cover the wardrobe. You could do this to you wall. Or you could hang up curtains along the walls, or a cloth!
To make your room cosier I’d suggest put up some fairy lights, hang up some of your photos, put out some candles and add some cushions and blankets!
Sorry for the extremely late reply! xxx Hope this reaches you somehow haha
Here’s some photos of wall cover ideas for you (sorry they’re not really in minimalistic/urban theme but it’s the idea that counts):
Whats your favorite room style? Contemporary, coastal, modern, minimalistic, etc etc. . . Personally im a fan of minimalistic but its not very functional. 👀
Minimalistic, I’m a real fan of urban outfitters inspired rooms haha. Whites, golds and grays... Functional as in? I reckon if you make use of your space you’re fine haha. It depends how you choose to use your room I suppose
I have so many things in my room and its constantly messy. I get rid of things but it doesn't seem to help. I also get tired of how I set my room up so its constantly changing. I'm a teenager and can't do much to help it but I would greatly appreciate if you gave me pointers on how to keep it clean and less looking like a child stays in it.
Hey hey, the thing with mess is that it’s unavoidable. I always always always have a pile of clothes on what I like to call ‘the chair’: which just keeps growing until I put everything away again.
Some tips for yourself is just to try and promise yourself to have a tidy up every week at least once. A main rule is to never ever leave anything on your floor!!!! I cannot stress this enough. Leaving stuff out is a lot less worse. Then to conquer the real problem; you might just not have a lot of storage space? What really helps is having enough drawers or shelves so that everything has a place, and out of sight out of mind! So just make sure everything is tucked away in drawers (a really popular cupboard for example is that Expedit from the Ikea (no promo I promise but just my own experience ;) )
If you have a scroll through most rooms, you’ll see that there’ll all minimalist. So minimum of stuff out. Just put everything in drawers, tidy up as often as you can, and leave only decor out (be strict with yourself: clothes, books, papers, makeup shouldn’t be on display: a plant or a candle should.) (own opinions, don’t worry if you don’t agree haha). Good luck xx
Here’s a few pics I found for you of stuff you CAN leave out, and how everything else is just in a nice plain drawer:
Heey! I'm about to renovate my room. I'm going to college now so I really want to make my room comfortable for studying. Good thing about room is that it has a high ceiling and it's quite big, but I have a dilema. I'm in love with grey walls but I'm kinda scared because I don't want to make "depressing" atmosphere. So do you have any advice for that? Should I paint all walls in grey or just one? Or is grey good color for room walls at all? I'm really sorry if I bother you. Your blog is amazing ❤
Hey hey, no bother at all! Gray walls are everything, but I get what you mean.
For this I reckon just make sure you have a really light gray colour, and then like you said; perhaps not on all walls. If you have big windows this can really help in making everything look lighter, so then I’d put grey on the wall opposite the windows and on, then leave the two adjacent ones white... if that makes sense.
Watch out then with posters/decoration that you don’t hang up dark stuff if you’re iffy about it looking too dark.
Here’s some pictures I’ve found for you: just combine with lighter colours and you should be completely fine! Good luck xx
Hey everyone, okay I just realised this huge mistake I’ve made
I never realised there were messages in my message box, and was only answering things in my ask box!! (Or other way round, not sure), so super sorry! I have no idea how long messages have been there but I’m answering now! (also prepare for the spam of answered messages upcoming)! xx
